Understanding Arm Lift Surgery

As bodies change with age, upper arm skin can become loose and flabby. An arm lift procedure helps patients feel more confident by addressing stubborn fat and excess skin, providing a more defined arm contour and youthful appearance.

What is an Arm Lift?

An arm lift, medically known as brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and tighten underlying tissue in the upper arms. This technique can help achieve more toned upper arms and is often part of comprehensive body contouring treatments.
